These are the 2019 table. The 2018 full-size rows are 33 psi, not 35.
1.5 psi per km above sea level is the sentence in the notice. This page does not convert it.

The maintenance checklist is on the site now. The email list is not sending yet, so this box will not store an address.
Same repair, different model year. Use the page that matches the truck or car in the driveway. A figure on one year is not a figure for the next.
These guides cover the same kind of work. Their numbers belong to those vehicles, not to this one.
